I just received a new tub of Ultimate Nutrition's Horsepower. Stuff seems to work pretty well. Not sure if it is better then BSN NO-Xplode. My question is when I take this stuff my skin from head to toe feels like it is on fire. Why does it do that? Has anyone else taken this product? What do you think? Thanks.

my guess would be the Beta-Alanine. It is known to make your skin tingle, but that way you know it's working...

ya, beta-alanine gives you a tingle effect. does it note the amount of beta alanine in the supplement?

I think it has somewhere around 2g of BA. If only Horsepower had stimulants it would be one of the best supplements out there.

why do you need stim.s? if you become to reliant on them, or abuse them, it can create problems

I used to need it to work out. Get that intensity and what not, but i don't need it much any more. I just started using a Pre WO with cafiene(sp?), first time in almost 5 months. My buddy says he needs the stims or he can't work out and he just drags a$$.

Heh, I'm actually taking that now and I can say I like it so far. Waking up when I wake up the first time, no afternoon crashes, and easier sleep. It's nice stuff. Heck last summer I was so bad with stims that I would be up for about 36 hrs or more before I slept. That was repeated every other day.

I have to have stims pre-workout or else i feel less focus/psyched. I do cycle off stims every 2 months though to reduce my tolerance.

i hear tolerance begins to set in after days 4-5 typically

Im not so sure about that. Ive been taking Fast Twitch for about a month now and still feel the energy rush.

I'm speaking on the caffiene itself. Theres also a lot to be said for the placebo affect

Just to give you guys a thought, if you need stims that bad. Just buy a huge pack of caffeine pills, and then buy yourself a good quality creatine product that you can dose twice a day (including night). And for preworkout just pop a couple caff. caps......talk about saving yourself money and getting far better results.
